The Empire Strikes Back (again)

About this episode

Marcus, Luke and Vish pull the curtain down on the season, as the Baron Samedi of European football won their 15th Big One™. We celebrate some spectacular performances from the likes of Vinicius Jr and Lenny Kravitz, and wonder if Dortmund probably should’ve won it.


Elsewhere, the Dutch FA have proposed a new footballing rule book and are looking to legalise it, Emperor Mourinho’s arrival in Turkey divides the studio and England’s summer of glory begins TONIGHT!
